Jacopo Costa Prince in the early 80s: considerations on the structural functions of performative gestures. Transcribing Prince's music can be a very frustrating exercise, as the notes that are put on a score (often quite ordinary) do no justice to the expressive richness we perceive when we listen to his songs. In my intervention, I will propose an analysis of the performative gestures in Prince's music, focusing on a few excerpts from his production of the years 1980-1984 (in terms of albums, from Dirty Mind to Purple Rain). The hypothesis to be tested is that in Prince's music a certain gestural approach to the performance (both instrumental and vocal) has an authentic structural function for the music: in other words, this gestural approach is not simply related to the field of musical interpretation, but has a constitutive function at the formal level of composition.

  • Musical Authenticity As ‘Being True to the Moment’
    54 (3/2019), pp. 9–28 The Polish Journal DOI: 10.19205/54.19.1 of Aesthetics Alessandro Bertinetto* Musical Authenticity as ‘Being True to the Moment’ Abstract In this paper I argue that the specific musical authenticity of improvisation in different kinds of music (especially, but not only, in Jazz and Free improvisation practices) consists of what I call ‘being true to the moment’ and that since the artistic success of every musical performance requires performers’ attentiveness and responsiveness to the moment of the performance, improvisational authenticity is the epitome of musical authenticity. I proceed as follows. Firstly I present Peter Kivy’s plural view of musical authenticity and discuss Julian Dodd’s view of musical improvisation as essentially inauthentic. Then, I articulate two notions of improvisational authenticity, ontological and expressive authenticity, which I develop by means of a third, and crucial, notion of improvisational authenticity: truthfulness to the moment, which is the specific way improvisation realizes a fourth kind of authenticity: artistic authenticity. Finally, I argue that improvisational authenticity is paradigmatic for the authenticity of musical performance as performance. Keywords Musical Authenticity, Improvisation, Musical Expressiveness, Musical Performance, Artis- tic Normativity. 1. Musical Authenticities Scholars, musicians and listeners highlight authenticity as an important artistic value of improvised music.1 But, is there a specific sense of authentic- ity that is valid for musical improvisation? I think that the specific musical authenticity of improvisation in different kinds of music (especially, but not only, in Jazz and Free improvisation practices) consists in ‘being true to the * University of Turin Department of Philosophy and Education Sciences Email: [email protected] 1 See for instance Fischlin et al.

  • Théorie Des Musiques Audiotactiles Et Notation
    Laurent Cugny Sorbonne Université - Faculté des Lettres Institut de Recherche en Musicologie (IReMus, UMR 8223) Centre de Recherches International sur le Jazz et les Musiques Audiotactiles (CRIJMA) mis en ligne en avril 2016 (http://www.iremus.cnrs.fr/fr/programme-de- recherche/seminaire-notation) Théorie des musiques audiotactiles et notation En 2009, dans un ouvrage qui se donnait pour ambition d’examiner les questions liées à l’analyse du jazz1, je fus amené à discuter un certain nombre de positions sur la question de la notation dans le jazz, depuis la pertinence de la notion dans ce champ jusqu’à certaines implications dont la plus manifeste est la transcription graphique (de musiques enregistrées) par le biais du solfège traditionnel. Ces positions étaient le plus souvent critiques. L’argument principal était que le jazz relevait fondamentalement de l’oralité et se trouvait par là en opposition à l’écriture et plus généralement à la raison graphique. L’exercice de la transcription était ainsi condamné pour deux motifs : 1. la transcription, par la nature même du système graphique utilisé ne pouvait tout appréhender de la musique transcrite et, pire, ratait l’essentiel qui, par définition, ne pouvait pas se noter ; 2. l’usage de la transcription relevait d’une croyance erronée, consistant à penser que la partition (ici descriptive) serait le support de l’œuvre, conception aberrante dans une musique d’essence orale (ou tout du moins non graphique). Cette critique de la transcription pouvait même, en amont, viser l’analyse elle-même, jugée elle aussi incapable de rendre compte de la réalité des musiques concernées.

  • Negative Reactions from Some Music Academics Inside the Italian System (20 June 2014) 1
    Tagg: Negative reactions from some music academics inside the Italian system (20 June 2014) 1 Negative reactions from some music academics inside the Italian system a short report by Philip Tagg Intro Our petition1 has, unsurprisingly, not exactly pleased every music academic in Italy. This text addresses those expressions of displeasure and seeks to clarify some of the confusion they create. Given that years of patient and diplomatic efforts by Franco Fabbri and others to secure a real place for popular music studies in Italy met with so little success,2 the only course of action available to those of us working to save our area of studies for future genera‐ tions was, in May 2014, to start a petition in a bid to avoid further damage to the subject and to those involved in it. Our reasoning about the petition, as well as the petition itself, have caused hefty reactions from some of those working inside the very system that excludes popular music studies. Some of those reactions were in my view petty and vindictive and are best ignored. Others have adopted a more reasoned sort of tone. The Pavia/Cremona document One document adopting a more reasoned tone was produced by the Board of the Department of Musicology and Musical Heritage (Consiglio di Dipartimento di Musicolo‐ gia e Beni Musicali) at the University of Pavia/Cremona. It was emailed by Gianmario Borio, Full Professor of Musicology in the same Department,3 to a few signatories of our petition, some of whom then forwarded it me. The Pavia/Cremona document criticises “claims made in the [our] petition” and seeks to present “facts [that] can contribute to a realistic evaluation of the quantity and impact of studies in popular music in Italy”.

  • Vincenzo Caporaletti I Modelli Cognitivi Visivo E Audiotattile. Criteri
    Vincenzo Caporaletti I modelli cognitivi visivo e audiotattile. Criteri epistemologici e modalità di implementazione Due modelli epistemologici Sono ormai vari anni che ho presentato la Teoria delle Musiche Audiotattili1, un modello integrato che categorizza e formalizza i sistemi e le esperienze musicali in chiave mediologica, ponendo l’accento sulle modalità cognitive attraverso cui le varie musiche del mondo, dislocate nello spazio e nel tempo, sono prodotte, rappresentate e conosciute. In particolare, questo modello indi- vidua due fondamentali forme d’inerenza uomo-ambiente, di conoscenza della realtà (non solo musicale) e di articolazione pragmatica: la matrice visiva e il principio audiotattile, attraverso cui è possibile mappare il campo estetico-antropologico delle musiche mondiali a partire da criteri unificati e dipendenti da ciò che vi è di più universale, la modalità cognitiva umana. In questo studio approfondiremo i criteri che sottendono queste due fonda- mentali mediazioni noetiche e pragmatiche. Nella grande lezione offertaci dalla riflessione in particolare di Martin Heidegger e Karl Jaspers, è delineato il corso storico attraverso cui nella Modernità si è affermata quella che definisco la matrice cognitiva visiva, esito di un progetto in cui la ratio anticipatrice e calcolante, nei termini di Heidegger, si è perva- 1 Cfr. almeno Vincenzo Caporaletti, I processi improvvisativi nella musica.

Songs’ and histories’ temporal density makes us think about the poetic time of musical creation until the existential time of narrative, and witness the projections in the memory’s inventions. We will dialogue with writing of music and writing of history’s contributions in the formation of the group "Camerata Dedilhada da UFRJ", from the composition "Goiabeira" by Marcus Ferrer, a work linked to the achievements of the research project "Brazilian music for strings’ fingering: research, production and interpretation" supported by FAPERJ. We think about what is tradition and innovation on music’s historical destinies practiced nowadays in Brazil; unlike an exclusionary view, but as a complement opposition, from the Heideggerian turn, on the event of appropriation concept, and from Pareysonian theory of formativity, besides theories formulated by musicologists: Antonio Jardim and Vincenzo Caporaletti.

Analyzing Energy: An Experiment Based on Practising three Solos by Bill Evans Laurent Cugny When I decided to become serious about playing jazz piano many years ago I set myself a scheme of work that involved an exercise of a particular kind. Prior to the internet age (the early 80’s) it was hard to get hold of published transcriptions. However, several volumes of Bill Evans’ piano parts from when he played in a trio were already available. One of them – Bill Evans 3 – included the full transcriptions of the piano parts of three performances of his own compositions: ‘Show-Type Tune (Tune for a Lyric)’, ‘Re: Person I Knew’ and ‘Peri’s Scope’.
